This Porzingis love is ridiculous. It genuinely sounds like they've been advised by higher-ups to fawn over him.

I mostly agree with you. They could give Jaylen the same amount of attention.

On the other hand, the zinger is special. He looks and plays differently than most bigs in this league. At his size and with his shooting ability, I can't see how the Knicks continue to suck, esp when they move on from Carmelo.

I hope we keep Young over RJ. I've seen some progress from him. Would like to see if he keeps improving.

because the starters are sitting and porzingis is obviously the most interesting player on the court.  Nobody cares about Jaylen brown nationally.  He was seen as a reach.  Expectations are minimal in year 1.  Plus, he's been pretty awful in this game so far.  If he goes on a run, they will talk about it.

Hunter=good solid player, end of rotation guy, won't hurt you too much, will he develop much more??

Young=better size, worse handle, some skills lacking, nba skill shooting, should develop more

I think in my mind that is it.  And i do like rj better but unless a trade to improve team is happening i'd keep young

I'd like to see Smart keep that dribble there.

This roster crunch might've been just what Young needed to get his butt in gear.

He is so bad at defense though.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Oh, I agree. I'm a big Zinger guy, but this would be annoying if they were talking about a superstar.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

It is crazy how easy Brown gets to the rim. He'll always have easy scoring opportunities with that ability.

Young doesn't seem to be rushing anymore. He's a lot more composed.
